Volatility
There are many news on the recent US debt ceilings. Hence the treasury yields have been raising, people are also worrying about recession risks. At such macro conditions, the best thing to do is to buy assets that are of cheap and decent yields, especially if you are a dividend investors.
See the table below? The last time REITs drop was 10 years yield about 3.9%, but I guess people are used to the talk about interest rates, hence this time didn’t drop much.

This time is different
Many think that this time is different, but it is the same for me. I just buy and slowly dca down when I feel that the price and yield is right. I am aiming about 5-6% yields for good companies.
Pictures speak a thousand words. Action speaks louder than words. Please do your due diligence.




For Mapletree Industrial Trust, the Private Placement price is priced at the higher range, this is different from the other recent corporate actions. The yield is about 6% pro forma. Hence I bought some and hope the price will drop lower after xD next week so that I can accumulate more.
Boustead is high netcash company with NAV close to close to the price of $80. Their recent offer for Boustead Project is at $0.955 which is so much lower than the RNAV. Likely it will good positive goodwill and up EPS after the results coming out tonight.
Netlink post good results with yield at 5.7% why not?
With the above purchases, I am still holding close go 55% cash with monthly cashflow still coming in. I am prepared to average down if needed. (hopefully got chance!)

Good articles that you should read!
People are drawn to dividend investing. Why? Firstly, dividends provide a regular stream of income, allowing investors to receive a portion of the company’s profits on a periodic basis. This can be particularly attractive for individuals seeking consistent cash flow or looking to supplement their existing income. Additionally, dividend investing is often viewed as a more stable and predictable investment strategy compared to relying solely on capital appreciation.

Remember: Time is the Ultimate Currency, not Money
Lastly, please remember Time is the ultimate currency, not money! Below is what I shared in this post.
Money just buy you the chance of freedom. When you are young and working, you exchange time for money. When you are old, you can have lots of money but you can’t buy time back, especially the things that you have missed while busying striking out in career. Of course, if you love your career, and consciously know that you are missing out the first time your child walk or talk, that’s ok, but if you are the other spectrum, please do something about it.
Love your life daily.
Time is ticking away.
For each passing day,
You have one less day with your spouse, parents, children and yourself.
Enjoy and Treasure your Life!
